WORTH CONSUMING!

This movie is the ultimate mind-fuck!!

The movie appears to be a documentary and personally, I found it very amusing – the deeper the collective got into their consensus decision-making the more amusing it became. (Ah, it takes me back to the days of leftie student politics at uni). But it was watching the extras on the DVD that was the icing on the cake…

======SPOILER ALERT===================
1. the ‘Q&A’ with the cast confirmed my suspicions… this is no documentary. It is all scripted (though very loosely at times). As it turns out, the movie was based on a short story by Todd (“Professor University”).
2. The ‘Making of’ gives further insight into the blurring of fact and fiction, and tells tales of the annoyed audience members at a screening, who describe themselves as the ‘I’ve been robbed’ camp when they find out the whole thing is a fictional movie.
The best parts of the DVD are these extras, but it is not possible to enjoy them to their fullest if you haven’t seen the movie first.
This movie messes with your mind, and I truly pity those poor undergraduate cinema studies students who are going to have to study it and write essays about it.
I also pity those fools who have added reviews to IMDB complaining about how shallow and pathetic the movie is. They clearly demonstrate their own stupidity.
PS. There is almost no nudity in this film (I counted a total of one breast). And there is definitely no porn. :)
